A government at war with itself.

The Conservative party at war.

This rag bag collection of inept egoists, misfits and shameless conspirators make a laughing stock of themselves and of the "government". Theresa May should show the strength and character expected of a British Prime Minister and consign these miscreant ministers to the back benches this afternoon, but her position is too weak to react and in any case, her character is too feeble  to hold the office. She lacks the backbone and the authority necessary to lead the country at this historic period of our history in our relationship with Europe and through the continuing domestic crises in healthcare, housing, welfare, employment and education. She should stand down and give the people the opportunity choose a leader to take us through these difficult times.

Hammond, Davis and Johnson have demonstrated on numerous occasions, that they are far  too wrapped up in their own self advancement to be anything other than disaterous in the role of Prime Minister, and their open hostility towards each other, and anyone else who dares to disagree with them, should warn us all of their hubris.

Until such time as Theresa May stands down or is deposed in some palace coup, the government will continue to lurch from crisis to crisis and sink deeper into the mire of confusion and ineptitude, while in the meatime the country pays the price.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe...

There will be many people over the coming months and years who will tell the "pollsters" that something should be done about the homeless, or the costs of electric, gas and water, or about the costs of public transport, or the failing (and privatised) NHS, or the excessive profits and tax avoidance of large corporations. etc. To all those I say, that if you did not vote Labour then you have only yourselves to blame and you must bear the consequences of your actions. Johnson a nd his sycophant cronies have been given a blank cheque to do as they please and sell off vast portions of the British economy to the Americans, (the takeover of British defence giant Cobham by a US private equi...

Greed and envy are good says Boris Johnson.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/embrace-culture-of-greed-says-boris-johnson-8968276.html Embrace culture of greed, says Boris Johnson Boris Johnson. "I stress – I don't believe that economic equality is possible; indeed some measure of inequality is essential for the spirit of envy and keeping up with the Joneses that is, like greed, a valuable spur to economic activity." Johnson delivering the annual Margaret Thatcher lecture at the Centre for Policy Studies think-tank, Wednesday 27th November 2013 Boris Johnson seeks to emulate Thatcher. He appeals to the evil side of the "nasty" party, for a society where greed is good, where selfishness is encouraged, where division amongst people by envy and status is championed as a proper objective and where the excesses of business and government are regarded as appropriate and right for the advancement of the few at the expense of the many. Johnson is an evil man with evil intent...
